laut.de

Philipp Gässlein from laut.de rated the album with three out of a possible five points. Above all, the production is convincing, whereas some of the guest contributions, such as by Emely, Charnell or G-Style, have been criticized. “Grammatical nuances and bumpy flows” would be masked by “outstanding beats” on most of the tracks. Overall, the German Dream artists, especially Ramsi Aliani and Summer Cem, presented themselves “better than expected”.
